French German Italian Portuguese Spanish Powered by SYSTRAN Horner's Syndrome Horner's syndrome is not uncommon and occurs in dogs, cats, horses and many other species. The symptoms generally include a sunken in eye (enophthalmia) with a small pupil (miosis), a droopy upper eyelid (ptosis) and a prominant third eyelid. Horner's syndrome must be differentiated from Uveitis which also produces a constricted pupil and a droopy looking eye. Horner's syndrome is an intriguing disorder which is quite complex to explain. Here goes.... There are two major divisions with your nervous system. There is the part of your nervous system that you are aware of and have control over, and there is the part of your nervous system that is under automatic control. You can perceive cold, and in responding to that stimulus consciously initiate all the actions that result in you putting on a jacket. But the shiver occurs without your control. Similarly, you do not have to think to make your heart beat. The autonomic nervous system - the part you have no control of - itself has two divisions... the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Under normal conditions there is a fine balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation. If someone attacks you with a knife, your pupils dilate, blood is shifted to your muscles, and your heart beats faster as you prepare to fight or flee. This is sympathetic stimulation.

44. Horner's Syndrome WHAT IS horner’S syndrome? horner’s syndrome consists of five signs It isnot necessary to treat horner’s syndrome. The syndrome is not painful and http://www.marvistavet.com/html/body_horner_s_syndrome.html

A “syndrome” is a collection of symptoms that have meaning when they go together. It is important to realize that having a syndrome is not the same as having a diagnosis. A syndrome, however, often has a limited number of causes such that recognizing a specific syndrome brings one substantially closer to a specific diagnosis. WHAT IS HORNER’S SYNDROME? Horner’s syndrome consists of five signs: Constricted Pupil Elevation of the Third Eyelid Retraction of the eyeball into the head Slight drooping of the Eyelid Increased pink color and warmth of the ear and nose on the affected side (very hard to detect in small animals) All these signs are caused by damage to sympathetic nervous system as it supplies the eye on the affected side of the head. WHAT IS THE SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM? Our bodies have numerous functions that are controlled by our nervous systems yet we are completely unaware of them. Our heart and respiratory rates, the amount of sweat and other secretions we produce, circulation to different body areas, pupil dilation and constriction are all regulated by our nervous systems automatically and without our knowledge or control. The part of our nervous system dedicated to these automatic systems is called the “Autonomic nervous system.”

PatientPlus articles are written for doctors and so the language can be technical. However, some people find that they add depth to the articles found in the other sections of this website which are written for non-medical people. Horner's Syndrome Rare condition results from disruption of the ocular sympathetic nerves, which run between hypothalamus and the eye, and serve the muscles of the upper eyelid and dilator fibres of the iris. Presentation Characteristic features are ipsilateral ptosis (drooping of upper eyelid) and miosis (constriction of pupil), with vasodilatation and absence of sweating also on that side of the face. There may be increased amplitude of pupillary accommodation and a paradoxical contralateral eyelid retraction. There may be mild enophthalmos. In congenital Horner's syndrome there may be heterochromia of the irides (pigmentation of iris is under sympathetic control, but is usually complete by age of 2 so hypopigmentation of the affected side will not be in apparent in cases of the syndrome developing after this age). Neuroanatomy The sympathic nerve supply to the eye is an arc of 3 neurone's: The first nerve originates in the posterolateral hypothalamus and descend through the mid brain and pons, and synapse at level C8-T2 the intermediolateral cell column of the spinal cord. The second nerves exit the cord at level T1 and ascend in the sympathetic chain over the apex of the lung and synapse in the superior cervical ganglion at the level of the bifurcation of the carotid (C3-4). The third (post-ganglionic) neurones pass alongside the internal carotid (sending branches to sweat glands of face), pass via the cavernous sinus to enter the eye via the superior orbital fissure and pass via the long ciliary nerves to supply the iris dilator and Müller muscle (eyelid elevator).

Doctors' Answers to "Frequently Asked Questions" - Horners Syndrome These comments are made for the purpose of discussion and should NOT be used as recommendations for or against therapies or other treatments. An individual patient is always advised to consult their own physician. Horner’s Syndrome [posted 8/11/98] Question: I had my first child in February of 1996. During the course of labor I was given an epidural as was planned. Within a matter of minutes I started to lose feeling in the left side of my face and arm. Upon looking in the mirror I was astonished to find that I looked as though I had had a stroke. Both the doctor and the anesthesiologist told me that I was suffering from a Horner's Syndrome. Almost all of the paralysis faded within 24 hours, though my left eye occasionally is sluggish to react to light change. I am now expecting my second child and trying to find out the likelihood of suffering the same problem if I attempt to have an epidural. I would also like to know if and how this problem will effect any future medical procedures. Answer: I don't know why you should have had a Horner's with an epidural. Consequently, I wouldn't expect a second occurrence. Did you see a neurologist? Might be useful prior to the epidural?
